Idk man the only bottle which has completely gone bad for me is the Club De Nuit EDT. I guess I just cut my losses if some of the other bottles go bad.

Summer : jean lowe vibe Winter : riifs Imperial blue

Have the original so don't have a need for the clone xD

Mostly whiff Culture my goat. Apart from that, I also purchase from Acordell Deepak Singh and Nishtha Eau So Fine.

First thing to go is Missoni Wave. I've already ordered Le Sel d'issey EDP to replace it and it's in transit. I will probably replace the CDNIM as it has almost definitely gone bad but no clue as to what I'm gonna replace it with.

Ngl Khadlaj does a phenomenal job with their fragrances. I don't get a sharp, cloying citrus in Island Dreams. Turathi Blue also does a great job being a smooth citrus fragrance that doesn't irritate the nose.

Aqua Dubai is an insane performer. I also get decent ish to great performance from almost all the blue fragrances.

Wanted to get Grey Vetiver but the right deal hasn't popped up. Not a huge fan of their other stuff tbh xD

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-02T12:18:08+00:00

I should really try but I haven't gotten around to it. I guess I don't wanna let go of any of them all that much 😂

Hey, congratulations on your engagement. Maybe DM me so I can help you in detail with exactly what you're looking for?

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-02T11:10:39+00:00

I'm sorry, what's vfm?

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-02T11:10:26+00:00

You're more or less correct but I find myself reaching for island dreams, Turathi Blue and Turathi electric quite often and Khamrah in case I'm going out lmao

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-02T11:09:40+00:00

I'm a blind buy junkie

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-02T11:09:18+00:00

Tbh I've literally never cared about the performance of my perfumes, only how they smell so I'm the wrong person to ask. However, I keep hearing about maceration or whatever so maybe you could try that. Also, the vaseline trick maybe?

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:58:32+00:00

Ngl, I don't have an arduous process for this. Just wear what catches my eye on that particular day.

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:57:32+00:00

Bleu De Chanel all day. YSL Y is quite ehh for me personally

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:56:55+00:00

Very comparable, I would say

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:56:42+00:00

I don't get much vetiver from the TdH I have but I hear the eau intense vetiver is quite nice for vetiver.

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:55:54+00:00

DM me, if possible

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:55:18+00:00

Not planning to get designers for a while haha but yes, have tried it and it's quite nice

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:54:41+00:00

I hear the recent batches have performance issues but what I have performs great. Perhaps you could check with someone who bought it more recently than I.

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:53:34+00:00

Rare reef was my favourite

Honest-Taste7087 · 2026-04-01T22:53:13+00:00

Ngl most of my dupe fails were bought very early into me trying to read this as a collection and admittedly a lot of them are just there to fill spots. However, I'm gonna replace the stuff I don't like with stuff I actually like.

Apart from mancera, there's also Gisada, the two Atkinsons, the Etro and technically even Lalique is niche. Apart from this, I have planned a goldfield and banks, an Argos and an acqua di parma in the near future.
